Tonight in Denver, CO, Barack Obama accepted the Democratic nomination for President of the United States in front of 84,000 people. When I talked about Hillary being VP, I was actually just looking for the votes, but when her and Bill spoke to the Dems at the DNC, I am hoping that their convincing arguments will turn those equal numbers from recent weeks back onto Obama’s side show McCain and his “advisers” that America wants change and not more of the same.

We don’t know yet what will happen, but if Hillary was on the ticket as VP, CNN predicts that the Democrats might be able to swing votes over to their side that Obama didn’t win and take a huge victory. If a “dream team” ticket, CNN predicts 316 EC votes for Obama and 222 EC votes for McCain.

Earlier today, there was a sample poll taken by Democrats who said that they wanted a joint ticket with Obama as Presidential nominee and Clinton as Vice President nominee. It will give Obama a few more months to pull the party back together and get the Republican party out of the Oval Office.

Obama drops out next week, stating that although he could almost certainly win the nomination by fighting it out until the convention in August, he is simply not willing to drag the party through a battle that will cripple its chances against John McCain.

If Hillary doesn’t drop out soon, I don’t know if the party can pull together and make a decision which in turn will put McCain in office. John McCain is George Bush’s twin…except John McCain was born 200 years earlier.
